About venue
Located on the outskirts of Ipswich in the Suffolk village of Waldringfield, The Greens Waldringfield offers 10 acres of open green space available for exclusive hire. Surrounded by countryside and positioned close to the River Deben, the site provides a versatile blank canvas suitable for large-scale outdoor events, festivals, corporate gatherings, weddings and temporary event structures.
With excellent road access from the A12 and extensive onsite parking, the venue combines the flexibility of an open-air event site with practical infrastructure for organisers seeking a custom-built event environment.
Event Space & Layout
The Greens Waldringfield comprises approximately 10 acres of private event space capable of accommodating events ranging from intimate gatherings to large-scale productions.
